I am finding it extremely relaxing to be honest. I just pop in a movie or a DVD of a TV series I like and just let my mind wander as I do the quilting. I think I really will do more of these hand quilted from now on.
And I've got the height of the chair pretty much where it needs to be and the frame is one height fits all...(Sad) but I'll just hop up from time to time and do the other chores that I'm avoidig as I quilt! LOL
